So, I doctored the ume jam up.
I decided to use the formula I use when I make yuzu marmalade which is 1 : 1 (fruit to sugar)...
As I was measuring out the sugar, I ran out...and it was raining cats and dogs yesterday, so I just made do with what sugar I had.
Luckily, it was about 80% of the amount I needed...
We tasted the jam this morning, it is tart but not sour.
I'm glad I was able to save this, it would be a shame if I had to throw it out.
NOTES: next time I'll taste the fruit...and decide what percentage of sugar to add, instead of just relying on the recipe given.

I bet it would still have been a delicious base for a beverage, like yuzu-cha. Then you could have still added additional sweetener as you used it!
Thanks Rona! I think you may have been right!
Take care.
